Cant Adopt Ap

[kitt2011]

Hello,

I have the following problem. I bought a used UNIFI UAC-AP. I can't get this one adopted. The Unifi add-on is installed and under settings, system, other configuration - override inform host this setting is enabled and the IP address of the home assistant is entered (192.168.178.17).

The UAC-AP was set up by the previous owner and was recognized. It said something like "the AP is assigned to another controller" under unifi devices.

I have set the UAC-AP to factory state. I also assigned it a fixed ip (192.168.178.6). It is also found under unifi devices, however I cannot adopt it. Nothing happens. Via SSH I can connect to the UAC-AP but also here the adoption fails with the line: set-inform http://192.168.178.17:8080/inform

then comes the error message:

Adoption request sent to 'http://192.168.178.17:8080/inform'.

1. please adopt it on the controller
2. issue the set-inform command again
3. will be saved after device is successfully managed

Does anyone have another idea?

thanks a lot

I found the documentation in the addon page, and was my fault, it works now perfect

I have kind of the same issue. I made a factory reset of a lite AP. After that I tried in multiple ways registering into the addon, and stays forever on adopting/offline infinity loop

The UAP-AC-Lite has the latest firmware version.

I installed a Windows version of the controller and adopted without any issue. Also generated a backup in the working one, and tried to use it to restore on the addon, and I get exactly the same issue, forever in adopting status.

The only thing I found in the logs is this, but not sure is related.

org.tuckey.web.filters.urlrewrite.UrlRewriteFilter INFO: destroy called Exception in thread "Thread-11" java.lang.IllegalStateException: BeanFactory not initialized or already closed - call 'refresh' before accessing beans via the ApplicationContext at org.springframework.context.support.AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext.getBeanFactory(AbstractRefreshableApplicationContext.java:168) at org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext.getBean(AbstractApplicationContext.java:1172) at com.ubnt.service.C.Ö00000(Unknown Source) at com.ubnt.ace.Launcher.o00000(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:750)

Thanks

Not sure if it is the same issue at 100%, but now I am trying with another Unifi installation.

I am trying with HomeAssistant in a virtual machine (my "production" one is on a Raspberry Pi), in the same raspberry pi I have the Unifi Network App installed natively. And now I am trying to install this addon in the VM one.

I made a full backup of my Unifi "Prod" Installation from the Raspberry, and after installing the addon, restore the backup from the guide, no issues, and nothing wrong, but I can see some of the data, for example, I can see in the dashboard a list of clients, but after it, in clients tab, I cannot see anything.

And if I try to check the devices in my network, I can see all 3 of them are in adopting mode. Right now, the raspberry is off, so cannot make any conflict.

But in the beginning, all 3 of them were in adopting mode, in the screenshot 1 of them is offline, and while I am writing this, are 2 of them are offline, and just one continues trying to be adopted :cry:

Any idea?

I will try to make a normal installation on my machine (windows for example) and restore the same backup file, and see if I get the same issues or not.

I have just installed the windows version, and I can restore it without any issues.

Did you set the inform host?

Go to the settings (gears icon in the bottom left) -> System -> Application Configuration.

Toggle Override Inform Host.

Change the Host for Inform to match the IP or hostname of the device running Home Assistant.
